My gal pals and I saw they were hosting a Girls' Weekend, so we decided it would be the perfect way…read moreto wind down summer!
And it 100% was the perfect way.
Booking/billing is a little disorganized as they were changing systems, so we had a little bit of trouble with that (some charge issues, unavailable lodging listed on website) but nothing a few phone calls couldn't fix!
Everything else was absolutely incredible. We stayed in the tanner house 2 nights, and we had beautiful flowers in the kitchen. It is the cutest house with sleeping arrangements for 4 or 5 with the couch! And it was comfy. The back deck overlooks the lake, and was perfect to look at stars at night and/or drink morning coffee. The oven was out of order, but we were overly fed without it!
That leads me to dining and the actual Girls' weekend package.
We got the cutest dinner tickets and schedules. So we started Saturday morning with a delicious little breakfast. The cinnamon rolls are next level good. Then we had an awesome yoga class at 11am. The yoga barn is gorgeous inside. Plenty of space for lots of yogis. Lunch was a delicious spread of salads and sandwiches and awesome pickles. Plus mimosas and desserts. The salads were a strawberry one and a peach one with these delicious nuts and dressings. They pay extreme attention to detail on the food here!
Then we spent our afternoon by the pool until it was time for our cocktail making class. The pool is so neat how it's built kind of secluded in the trees. It has an outdoor kitchen area and the nicest pool bathrooms I've ever seen. They had lots of floaties for us to relax on too.
The cocktail class was another incredible inclusion. And we got to keep our shakers! Mack was the head bartender, and she was SO great. I didn't catch the other girls names that helped us all day, but every staff member the whole weekend were SO kind and fun.
The cocktail concept was one I had seen on TikTok brought to life even better. It was a brilliant set up. We had so much fun trying new flavors and muddling our ingredients. We also got drawn names for a giveaway gift! I got the cutest wine cup. And we got a gift card for the gift shop boutique on site with our overnight booking.
As dinner rolled around, our dinner ticket in the package allowed us to order a drink and entree from the main dinner menu, so it was great to try that! I got the sirloin tips special, and oh my gosh was it good. Quality beef. The glazed carrots were SO good, and the onion rings hand battered and fried to perfection. We all struggled deciding what to get because it all sounded delicious. Since we shared, I can confirm the garlic shrimp and bruschetta are also delicious. And spaghetti! We even got this little fan that keeps flies away on our outdoor table. The patio was beautiful. Our server (Kristy I think or Christine maybe) was SO nice. And even though I made cocktails with Mack earlier, her margarita special at dinner was still better than anything I made myself! Lol
Then we had the option of a movie in the pool on this big inflatable screen, which is such a cool idea, or live music at the barn! We ate a late dinner, so we didn't spend too much time out and about after that, but the offerings were supreme.
And of course we just enjoyed our time back at the Tanner House laughing, dancing, eating leftovers, etc.!
We also got Sunday brunch, which was another incredible experience. Huge selection of fancy options like prime rib! Plus all the classic breakfast offerings elevated. Dessert was amazing. The catfish was excellent. I ate until I was overly stuffed because I wanted to try it all. Definitely hit the Sunday brunch if you want the best in NE Oklahoma.
Not only is the Canebrake just beautiful and fun on its own, they host some awesome events like Girls' Weekend. The price we paid vs what we got was unmatched. It was beyond worth what we spent. We loved all of it. One of us did a spa day too, and she said it was heavenly.
Every service requested & offered was extremely thought out, planned, and executed with success.
I could do individual reviews for every aspect, and I've already written a novel!
I can't wait to go back for another event or just a relaxing meal on the patio.
Thank you staff for making us feel so pampered!
